1 T hus saith the Lord God; The gate of the inner court that looketh toward the east shall be shut the six working days; but on the sabbath it shall be opened, and in the day of the new moon it shall be opened.

¶ Thus hath the Lord GOD said: The gate of the inner court that looks toward the east shall be shut the six working days; and the day of the sabbath it shall be opened, and in the same manner it shall be opened the day of the new moon.

2 A nd the prince shall enter by the way of the porch of that gate without, and shall stand by the post of the gate, and the priests shall prepare his burnt offering and his peace offerings, and he shall worship at the threshold of the gate: then he shall go forth; but the gate shall not be shut until the evening.

And the prince shall enter from outside by the way of the porch of that gate and shall stand by the threshold of the gate (while the priests shall prepare his burnt offering and his peace offerings), and he shall worship at the entrance of the gate: then he shall go forth; but the gate shall not be shut until the evening.

3 L ikewise the people of the land shall worship at the door of this gate before the Lord in the sabbaths and in the new moons.

Likewise the people of the land shall worship at the door of this gate before the LORD in the sabbaths and in the new moons.

4 A nd the burnt offering that the prince shall offer unto the Lord in the sabbath day shall be six lambs without blemish, and a ram without blemish.

And the burnt offering that the prince shall offer unto the LORD in the day of the sabbath shall be six lambs without blemish, and a ram without blemish.

5 A nd the meat offering shall be an ephah for a ram, and the meat offering for the lambs as he shall be able to give, and an hin of oil to an ephah.

And the present shall be an ephah of fine flour for each ram and the present for each lamb as he shall be able to give, and a hin of oil for each ephah.

6 A nd in the day of the new moon it shall be a young bullock without blemish, and six lambs, and a ram: they shall be without blemish.

But in the day of the new moon it shall be a young bullock without blemish, and six lambs, and a ram; they shall be without blemish.

7 A nd he shall prepare a meat offering, an ephah for a bullock, and an ephah for a ram, and for the lambs according as his hand shall attain unto, and an hin of oil to an ephah.

And he shall prepare a present of an ephah of fine flour with the calf, and another ephah with each ram, and for the lambs according as his hand shall attain unto, and a hin of oil with each ephah.

8 A nd when the prince shall enter, he shall go in by the way of the porch of that gate, and he shall go forth by the way thereof.

And when the prince shall enter, he shall go in by the way of the porch of that gate, and he shall go forth by the same way thereof.

9 B ut when the people of the land shall come before the Lord in the solemn feasts, he that entereth in by the way of the north gate to worship shall go out by the way of the south gate; and he that entereth by the way of the south gate shall go forth by the way of the north gate: he shall not return by the way of the gate whereby he came in, but shall go forth over against it.

But when the people of the land shall come before the LORD in the solemn feasts, he that enters in by the way of the north gate to worship shall go out by the way of the south gate; and he that enters by the way of the south gate shall go forth by the way of the north gate; he shall not return by the way of the gate by which he came in, but shall go forth opposite it.

10 A nd the prince in the midst of them, when they go in, shall go in; and when they go forth, shall go forth.

And the prince, when they go in, he shall go in, in the midst of them; and when they go forth, he shall go forth.

11 A nd in the feasts and in the solemnities the meat offering shall be an ephah to a bullock, and an ephah to a ram, and to the lambs as he is able to give, and an hin of oil to an ephah.

And in the feasts and in the solemnities the present shall be an ephah of fine flour with each calf, and another ephah with each ram, and with the lambs as he is able to give, and a hin of oil with each ephah.

12 N ow when the prince shall prepare a voluntary burnt offering or peace offerings voluntarily unto the Lord, one shall then open him the gate that looketh toward the east, and he shall prepare his burnt offering and his peace offerings, as he did on the sabbath day: then he shall go forth; and after his going forth one shall shut the gate.

Now when the prince shall prepare a voluntary burnt offering or peace offerings voluntarily unto the LORD, they shall open him the gate that looks toward the east, and he shall prepare his burnt offering and his peace offerings, as he does on the day of the Sabbath; then he shall go forth; and after his going forth they shall shut the gate.

13 T hou shalt daily prepare a burnt offering unto the Lord of a lamb of the first year without blemish: thou shalt prepare it every morning.

Thou shalt daily prepare a burnt offering unto the LORD of a lamb of the first year without blemish; thou shalt prepare it each morning.

14 A nd thou shalt prepare a meat offering for it every morning, the sixth part of an ephah, and the third part of an hin of oil, to temper with the fine flour; a meat offering continually by a perpetual ordinance unto the Lord.

And thou shalt prepare a present with it each morning, the sixth part of an ephah of fine flour, and the third part of a hin of oil, to temper with the fine flour; this shall be a present for the LORD continually by a perpetual ordinance.

15 T hus shall they prepare the lamb, and the meat offering, and the oil, every morning for a continual burnt offering.

Thus shall they prepare the lamb and the present and the oil each morning for a continual burnt offering.

16 T hus saith the Lord God; If the prince give a gift unto any of his sons, the inheritance thereof shall be his sons’; it shall be their possession by inheritance.

¶ Thus hath the Lord GOD said: If the prince gives a gift of his inheritance unto any of his sons, it shall be theirs; the possession thereof shall be by inheritance.

17 B ut if he give a gift of his inheritance to one of his servants, then it shall be his to the year of liberty; after it shall return to the prince: but his inheritance shall be his sons’ for them.

But if he gives a gift of his inheritance to one of his slaves, then it shall be his until the year of liberty; when it shall return to the prince; but his inheritance shall be his sons’ for them.

18 M oreover the prince shall not take of the people’s inheritance by oppression, to thrust them out of their possession; but he shall give his sons inheritance out of his own possession: that my people be not scattered every man from his possession.

And the prince shall take nothing from the people’s inheritance, that he not defraud them of their possession; but he shall give his sons inheritance out of his own possession that my people not be scattered each one from his possession.

19 A fter he brought me through the entry, which was at the side of the gate, into the holy chambers of the priests, which looked toward the north: and, behold, there was a place on the two sides westward.

¶ After he brought me through the entry, which was at the side of the gate, into the holy chambers of the priests, which looked toward the north; and, behold, there was a place on the two sides westward.

20 T hen said he unto me, This is the place where the priests shall boil the trespass offering and the sin offering, where they shall bake the meat offering; that they bear them not out into the utter court, to sanctify the people.

Then he said unto me, This is the place where the priests shall boil that which was offered as guilt and that which was offered as sin, where they shall bake the present; that they not bear them out into the outer court, to sanctify the people.

21 T hen he brought me forth into the utter court, and caused me to pass by the four corners of the court; and, behold, in every corner of the court there was a court.

Then he brought me forth into the outer court, and caused me to pass by the four corners of the court; and, behold, in each corner of the court there was a patio.

22 I n the four corners of the court there were courts joined of forty cubits long and thirty broad: these four corners were of one measure.

In the four corners of the court there were patios joined of forty cubits long and thirty broad; these four corners were of one measure.

23 A nd there was a row of building round about in them, round about them four, and it was made with boiling places under the rows round about.

And there was a wall round about in them, round about those four, and it was made with fire places all around the palaces.

24 T hen said he unto me, These are the places of them that boil, where the ministers of the house shall boil the sacrifice of the people.

Then said he unto me, These are the quarters of the cooks, where the servers of the house shall cook the sacrifice of the people.
